Two disks?  Or drives?  :)

What you want is to get your OS (which you never mention) talking with the 
changer.  Once you get your OS to see and possibly maniuplate the device, 
docs/TAPE.CHANGERS will help you get started with amanda.  chg-scsi is one 
optin for tpchanger, chg-zd-mtx is another.  Both are well documented in 
docs/TAPE.CHANGERS and, in the case of chg-zd-mtx, in the chg-zd-mtx 
script itself.
